Praying for God's Big Purposes | 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12

Oct 20, 2024    Mitch Green

In this message, we dive into the power of praying for the big things—prayers that align with God’s highest purposes. While it’s natural to focus on the everyday details, today we explore the importance of lifting up bigger prayers that reflect God’s calling, goodness, and Spirit-filled power.


Using 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12, we focus on three key prayers for believers, especially those going through trials:

1️⃣ Sanctification – Praying that God would make us worthy of His calling.

2️⃣ Good Works – Asking God to align our desires with His ultimate good.

3️⃣ Spirit-Filled Faith – Seeking to live a life empowered by the Holy Spirit, recognizing God’s miracles in our midst.


What are we really asking God to do in the lives of others and ourselves? How can our prayers reflect a deeper trust in His work? These questions lie at the heart of this message. Don’t miss this opportunity to grow in how you pray for God’s transforming work!


📖 Key Text: 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14
